Developmental disability services — Regional Centers

A Regional Center is California's front door for people with a developmental disability that began before age 18 — intellectual disability, autism, cerebral palsy, epilepsy, and related conditions. Intake and the eligibility assessment are free, and a service coordinator helps arrange ongoing support. Which center you use depends on the county you live in. This is information, not an eligibility decision — the center assesses and decides; we just help you find the right one. Official DDS county lookup ↗
